Many users worry about losing their projects when their CapCut Pro subscription expires, especially if the drafts contain paid materials such as premium templates, effects, or music. The good news is that your draft videos will remain intact even after your subscription ends. You can still access and continue editing these projects within the CapCut app. 📍 If you have any questions about accessing or exporting draft videos after your subscription ends, please contact our support team for further assistance.
Accessing Drafts Without CapCut Pro
Even after your CapCut Pro subscription expires, all your saved draft videos are stored locally or in your cloud storage. You can open, view, and continue working on them, but certain premium features or paid materials will become restricted. While you can make basic edits using free tools, some advanced functions may be unavailable until you renew your subscription.
Exporting Draft Videos with Paid Materials
The main limitation after CapCut Pro ends is the inability to export videos that include paid materials. When you try to export a draft containing premium templates, effects, or music, the app will prompt you to renew CapCut Pro to unlock full export capabilities. This ensures that creators retain access to their purchased content while respecting the subscription model for premium assets.
Tips for Managing Your Drafts
To avoid interruptions:
- Plan your exports before your subscription ends.
- Consider renewing CapCut Pro temporarily to export high-priority drafts.
- Keep track of which drafts use paid materials, so you can prioritize them for export.
In summary, your draft videos will not disappear after CapCut Pro expires, even if they contain paid materials. You can continue editing, but exporting those videos will require renewing your subscription. This approach ensures your projects remain safe while maintaining access control for premium content.
